Tight security in Ayodhya as groups gather to build support for temple

Ayodhya became a fortress on Sunday as groups like the Vishwa Hindu
Parishad and the Shiv Sena held rallies to build
pressure on the government to build a Ram temple. Shiv Sena chief
Uddhav Thackeray, who is in Ayodhya, warned the BJP that unless a
temple is built, it will be out of power.

Many right-wing groups have been demanding that the government pass an
ordinance or executive order to bypass the legal case. The Ayodhya case is
pending in the Supreme Court, which will decide on a date of
hearing in January.

Thackeray has accused the BJP of dragging its feet.

Do whatever it is you have to do. A temple has to be built This government
is very powerful and if they (the BJP) don't build a temple they will not
be in government. - Shiv Sena chief Uddhav Thackeray

Three lakh people, including sadhus, attended a Dharam Sansad on
Sunday.

Uttar Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Keshav Prasad Maurya has
criticised the Shiv Sena for demanding a temple saying the party had role in
the temple movement.
